ccna cyber ops

---

Hello,

i was taking a look at the new cisco certifications and found this one, ccna cyber ops, which i wasn't aware of.
Since my main target is cybersecurity ( mainly hacking and penetration testing ), is it safe to say that, (put aside the certification itself), the cyber ops course here (both courses) provide enough knowledge about networking fundamentals AND from a "security" perspective?! is that right? is it like someone who is in security explaining networking?! (which looks like a dream come true if that's correct ).
or is it better to build a foundation based on other elementary courses? (such as network+ or ccent) ?
again im just interested in the materials and not the certifications.

thank you guys for all the work you re doing. greatest platform ever!!

@EA89,

The Cisco CCNA CyberOps is focused on the individual who desires to work in a Security Operations Center as an basic analyst. The course description should help you to understand all of the different topics that are covered within the course. It reviews networking fundamentals and the examines tools and concepts that you should be able to understand when working in a SOC. It will do some of what you're seeking. But this is really for that specific job duty.

I'm relatively certain that just about every course that we have in our library has some section covering security with devices or platforms that you should be aware.

We appreciate your kind words about ITProTV and we appreciate you too!
